A Study on the Method for Promoting Trade between Central Asian CIS Countries and the region Daegu-Gyeongbuk

중앙아시아CIS 국가를 활용한 대구·경북 무역의 활성화 방안 연구

This study examined the trade of the Central Asian CIS countries and the Daegu-Gyeongbuk region. These countries are rich in resources such as oil, natural gas and aluminum. These countries were switched to capitalist market economy after independence from the Soviet Union. So, these countries are considered as new emerging markets. This study analyzed the current status of trade between Daegu-Gyeongbuk region and Central Asian CIS countries. The result of analysis of the trade structure between the Daegu-Gyeongbuk and Central Asian CIS countries, and of the Daegu-Gyeongbuk region exports to Central Asian CIS countries showed insufficience when compared with the total export of korea. In this study, we used the gravity model to analyze the trade volume of the Daegu-Gyeongbuk region and Central Asian CIS countries. The result of analysis is that the globalization of Central Asian CIS countries appeared to be effective in increasing trade. In order to increase trade, Korea and CIS countries should strengthen their economic cooperation. Especially, these countries should try to implement FTAs for economic integration. The Central Asian CIS countries have an industrial structure that relies on resource exports. So, they have a blueprint for diversification of industries through national long-term plans. The Daegu-Gyeongbuk region's economy has been going through long-term stagnation. If the Daegu-Gyeongbuk companies can enter the Central Asian CIS countries, it can be a solution for the local economy.

본 연구는 중앙아시아국가들과 대구·경북 지역의 무역활성화를 위한 방안을 제시하기 위함을 목적으로 한다. 새로운 신흥 시장으로 성장하고 있는 중앙아시아지역과 현재의 교역 현황을 분석하였다. 또한 중력모형분석을 통하여 중앙아시아 지역의 국제화가 교역량 증가에 긍정적인 영향을 미친다는 사실을 입증하였다. 이를 바탕으로 교역활성화를 위한 국가적 정책 수립과 민간차원에서 접근해야할 방법에 대하여 제시하였다. 또한 대구·경북 지역의 교역 활성화를 위해 지역차원에서 이루어져야 할 해결책에 대하여 논의하였다.
